We already have a very efficient engine. Just fuel it with H_{2 We already have the technology with LNG plants. Lots of BCC busses run on LNG already.

Put a Methane Gas CH₄ digester in your backyard, and a compressor, and you can refuel your car overnight too. The digester is fuelled by all your organic household waste. Including all your excrement. Which, judging by this forum, is enough to power the Galaxy. Make all the cars out of Aluminium, and they can all be recycled like Coke cans. Unlike EVs which are so heavy the bodies have to be made out of Petrochemical based plastics.

Very few posters here have any mental balance. Their particular idea is the only one. EVs have their uses. So do other technologies. Look at all the natural gas powered forklifts for instance. Or electric motors for high-torque applications. Electric forklifts are great too. I also note that CAT and Liebherr electric excavators. are considerably more expensive. Reliability? Not known yet. The Haulpaks are hybrids. Diesel generator with an electric. motor in every wheel-set. Just the same as Deisel-electric Locomotives. Walkers in Maryborough did make diesel hydraulic ones. but only for shunting applications.

One other poster used the Bris Cairns analogy to rubbish that proposal. He has never, and never intends to drive there. Well. The opposite. I used to do the trip four to six times a a year by road plus many flying visits. All in the name of my job. So as I have said over and over. We don't all have the same needs/wants. If you fly to Cairns, you still have to hire transport once you are there.
